Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 24 Team Mission (Please continue reading)

"That's enough for today. We've got a good understanding of your strength. Let's call it a day. Get some rest and we'll go pick up a mission tomorrow."

After stopping their fight, Uchiha Yoichi gestured to Kakashi, saying that after five days of combat training, he had a good understanding of Kakashi's full strength.

He is good at using Lightning Release and Earth Release ninjutsu, and his main fighting method is White Fang Blade Technique. The coordination between his ninjutsu is also good, and he has excellent control over the instantaneous moments in battle.

This level of skill is quite good even among Chunin, making them a great helper on missions.

Uchiha Yoichi has not relaxed these past few days. In addition to swordsmanship and Lightning Release Chakra Mode, he has also been practicing Sharingan genjutsu.

As for his sparring partner, it would naturally be Kakashi.

He has some understanding of genjutsu and can guard against and dispel it, but he has been somewhat helpless these past two days due to Uchiha Yoichi's Sharingan genjutsu.

Although Uchiha Yoichi has only learned two Sharingan genjutsu so far, it has increased the difficulty for Kakashi to deal with them by several times compared to before.

Kakashi was extremely uncomfortable dealing with the situation because he couldn't look directly into Uchiha Yoichi's Sharingan and had to be wary of his gaze.

After being hit by Sharingan genjutsu four or five times, Kakashi refused to train with Uchiha Yoichi. Once caught in Sharingan genjutsu, it's practically impossible to break free on your own, and Kakashi had already lost five or six times.

"What time do we meet tomorrow?"

"Nine o'clock, Hokage Building!"

"Okay, I understand. I'll head back now."

After saying goodbye, Kakashi left.

Uchiha Yoichi also returned. The matter with Root had been left unresolved since his visit to the Second Elder, and it had now been settled by the Second Elder.

The rumors in the village also decreased significantly because the Uchiha police arrested more than a dozen of the most active rumor-mongers and posted their telepathic messages about spreading rumors about Uchiha Yangyi.

Ordinary people are meaningless in front of ninjas, especially since the Uchiha clan has the Sharingan, which allows them to easily use genjutsu to see into someone's mind.

The rumors have subsided, but the reputation of the Uchiha clan has been slightly affected. Now, when Uchiha Yangyi goes out on the street, you can see fear in the eyes of ordinary people.

However, in Uchiha Yoichi's view, the Uchiha clan did not need the villagers' love and respect at all.

Whoever controls the power, ordinary people should submit to them; what right do people who can only survive under the protection of ninjas have to turn around and jeer at the Uchiha clan?

You've never been hit by the iron fist of the security guards, have you!

As for who knows how to practice Lightning Release Chakra Mode, Uchiha Yoichi didn't care. This ninjutsu is extremely difficult to master, no less difficult than Gentle Fist's Rotation. It basically requires the release of chakra from most of the body's pressure points.

Uchiha Yoichi's chakra ninja sword was also delivered, but it wasn't Uchiha Masato who delivered it; it was Uchiha Masato.

It must be because the Second Elder took over all the matters that he sent his son to deliver the knife.

This chakra ninja sword is truly well-forged. It incorporates some conductive minerals, combining both hardness and chakra conductivity. Uchiha Yangichi only attached a little chakra to it, yet the sword was already crackling with lightning.

This chakra ninja sword was named Raito by Uchiha Yoichi. It was somewhat similar to one of the Seven Ninja Swords of Kirigakure, but he didn't care.

Whether a weapon becomes famous ultimately depends on the user.

The next day, the two arrived at the Hokage Building at roughly the same time, greeted each other, and then went inside.

Upon arriving at the mission team, the people inside seemed somewhat uneasy when they saw that the visitor was Uchiha Yoichi.

Sakuma, in particular, had two ribs broken by Uchiha Yoichi's kick last time and spent several days in the hospital recovering.

Afterwards, he learned that Uchiha Yoichi had not been punished at all; on the contrary, those who spread the rumors more aggressively were arrested by the police and severely punished.

This infuriated Sakuma. His friend had died in Uchiha Yoichi's squad, and he himself had two ribs broken by Uchiha Yoichi. Even speaking ill of Uchiha Yoichi could get him arrested by the police.

Now, upon seeing Uchiha Yoichi, Sakuma's eyes held both resentment and fear; he was also afraid that Uchiha Yoichi would attack him again.

"Accept mission, Rank B, assassination missions preferred, personnel: Uchiha Yoichi and Hatake Kakashi."

Uchiha Yoichi glanced at Sakuma and then ignored him, finding a nearby ninja from the mission squad.

When the ninja saw Uchiha Yoichi speaking to him, he snapped out of his daze and quickly said to Uchiha Yoichi, "Wait a moment, let me take a look."

"There are still quite a few B-level missions, these are the assassination types, you can choose one yourself."

Uchiha Yang took a look and found that there were quite a few assassination requests being made to Konoha, and that B-rank missions already involved ninjas, which was noted at the end of the missions.

"Let's make a note of this and this."

"You're going to take on two B-rank missions?"

"That's right, let's make a note of it."

"This is against the rules. I need to ask the Hokage."

The ninja from the mission team looked troubled and, seeing that Uchiha Yoichi didn't react, got up and walked towards the Hokage's office.

Seeing this, Kakashi leaned closer and whispered, "Why don't we take on a mission first? That way we'll be safer."

"There's no need. These two missions happen to be in the Land of Grass and the Land of Earth, which are conveniently on the way. If we accept them one by one, the round trip will waste seven or eight days."

Kakashi gave him a deadpan look. As the team leader, he wasn't worried about the mission failing at all; all he was thinking about was wasting time.

However, one is a minister of the Land of Grass, and the other is a sentry from the Hidden Stone Village, so the mission doesn't seem too difficult.

After a while, the ninja returned to the mission team and said to Uchiha Yoichi and Kakashi, "The Hokage has given permission, I'll handle it for you."

-----------

A secret base deep underground in Konoha Village

This is the root. When it was created, Danzo claimed that he was the root that protected Konoha and provided nourishment, so even the base was built underground.

"Leave the village? Hmph, it would be difficult to make a move in Konoha. Leaving the village is just asking for death."

A cold glint flashed in Danzo's eyes. That old bastard Kenji Uchiha was protecting Yoichi Uchiha, preventing his Root members from making a move in the village, but once they reached outside the village...

"Lord Danzo, Kakashi Hatake and Yoichi Uchiha have formed a team. If we make a move..."

"Who said we had to take action? That evil Uchiha has mastered the secret ninjutsu of the Cloud Ninja. With the Raikage's foul temper, do you think he can just pretend this didn't happen?!"

"What the adult means is..."

"Sell the information to the Hidden Cloud Village, then have a small Root unit follow behind; we need to provide a final guarantee!"

Danzo tapped his cane, then sneered, "Two-tomoe Sharingan, not bad talent, but unfortunately it can't be used by Konoha."
